What does the computeRelative transformation analyze?

The computeRelative transformation is designed to analyze data trends by examining both previous and next records relative to a specified data point. This feature is particularly useful when you want to understand how a metric may have changed over time or how it compares to surrounding values. By utilizing data from both sides of a given point, the transformation captures trends and shifts, allowing for more insightful analysis.

Analyzing previous and next records enables users to glean information such as growth trends, seasonality, or anomalies that could be missed if only isolated data points were considered. This holistic approach facilitates a deeper understanding of the data's context, which is essential for making informed decisions based on the trends identified.
